1. A heavy nucleus (U235 or Pu239), when bombarded by slow moving neutrons, split into two
or more nuclei.
2. Two or more neutrons are produced by fission of each nucleus.
3. Huge amount of energy is produced as a result of nuclear fission.
4. All the fission fragments are radioactive, giving off β and radiations.
<span>5. The atomic weights of fission products range from about </span>70 to 160.
6. The nuclear chain reactions can be controlled and maintained steadily by absorbing a
desired number of neutrons. This process is used in nuclear reactor.
<span>7. All the fission reactions are self-propagating chain-reactions because fission products contain </span>
neutrons (secondary neutrons) which further cause fission in other nuclei.
8. Every secondary neutron, released in the fission process, does not strike a nucleus, some
escape into air and hence a chain reaction cannot be maintained.
<span>9. The number of neutrons, resulting from a single fission, is known as the multiplication factor. </span>
When the multiplication factor is less than 1, a chain reaction does not take place.
<span>10. The control of chain reaction is necessary in order to maintain a steady reaction. This is </span>
carried out by absorbing a desired number of neutron by employing materials like
percentage of Cd, B or steel.
11. In a nuclear reactor, the multifactor is one. This is achieved by proper arrangement of
<span>fissionable materials.</span>
Answer:
It’s true ( pure).
Explanation:
An element is defined as a pure substance that is not chemically combined with any other elements. An element comprises of mainly the sane type of atoms.
While a compound is a substance that consists of two or more elements which are chemically combined together. This is the main difference between an element and a compound.
1) is called 3-methyl hexane because we choose the longest possible continuous chain which has 6 carbons and start numbering from the side that gives the branch lowest possible number.
2) is called 2-methyl-2-butene because we have to give the double bond lowest possible number but in this case double bond in position 2 from both sides so we start from the side gives the branch number 2 not 3
3) is called 7-Ethyl-4-decyne because we have to start from the side that gives the triple bond lowest possible number which is 4 and the branch will be at position 7 (note that the name of 10 carbon is incorrectly written in the choices is called decane (as alkane) or decyne when contains triple bond)
4) is called 2,3-Dimethyl pentane because it is 5 carbons (pentane) and we have two branches of the same alkyl (dimethyl) in positions 2 and 3
5) is called 1-Butanol because it contains 4 carbons and has one OH as functional group which take the suffix -ol in position 1 so we said the name as 1-butanol (remember to give the functional group lowest possible number)
6) is called propyl butyl ether because the longest chain is 4 carbons which called butyl and the smallest chain is propyl, it also has another name 1-Propoxy butane <span />
Answer: Hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed.
Explanation:
The formula for average speed is :
R = gas constant
T = temperature
M = Molecular Mass
Now putting all the values:
Thus average speed of hydrogen is 8 times the average speed of oxygen. Thus hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed
